GREETINGSWELCOME to Boise State University’s 17th Annual Undergraduate Research Showcase!This is an exciting time to be an undergraduate student at Boise State, and we are glad to be able to share

our students’ work with you. Over the past few years, we have made significant changes to our program and

experienced tremendous growth in student interest, and this year we decided to feature a brand new plenary

session spotlighting students from across the university in a round of 3–minute lightning talks.

Because of COVID-19, our program is a bit different than we had originally envisioned it. However, we were

determined to not allow the immense interruption that this pandemic has caused to get in the way of

celebrating the amazing work done by our students. We are extremely proud of these student researchers

– for their creativity, their perseverance, and their willingness to continue to work on their research projects

in these incredibly difficult times. We are also grateful for our students’ determination and hard work in

preparing their posters and lightning talks for the virtual event.

A record 261 poster abstracts were submitted for presentation at this year’s event prior to the shift to remote

learning. We are grateful to many of our students who, despite having to make tremendous adjustments

to their new learning environments and being adversely affected by stay-at-home orders and new home

dynamics, have risen to these challenges and worked hard to not only ensure that their work is represented

at this year’s event, but that it is also accessible to all audience members in the virtual space.

Similarly, our faculty mentors and research supervisors have also shown immense support and commitment

to our students, leaning in even as they themselves were adjusting to their own obligations as a result of this

situation. Our students have no doubt benefited from our faculty, graduate students, and staff support in

ways that we can not easily measure, but which are extremely appreciated.

The heart of a research university is the interaction of research faculty and graduate students mentoring

and engaging with undergraduate students in the messy work of authentic scholarship. This showcase is the

embodiment of that heart.

On behalf of the planning committee, we thank you for coming to our students’ showcase, and we hope that

you enjoy listening to our students, reading and studying their posters, and we encourage you to follow up

with them to learn more about their work.

Take care, and go Broncos!
